Open call for the 2019 EPP grants at the HAEU

Posted on 09 April 2019

The Group of the European People’s Party in the European Parliament grants programme for 2019 is now open for applications. The programme envisages the awarding of a research grant of 5.000 € to successful postgraduate students interested in investigating the history and role of Christian Democracy and its impact on decisive moments in the process of European integration. The call for application is open until May 20th, 2019.

This grant programme is designed to enable researchers to broaden their research by studying the primary sources held at the Historical Archives of the European Union in Florence, at the EPP Group’s archives in Brussels and/or at the Konrad Adenauer Stiftung (KAS) in Sankt Augustin (Bonn).

All current postgraduate students (master’s and doctoral candidates) are invited to submit their applications, but also postdoctoral researchers who have completed a doctorate degree within the three years preceding the date of submission are eligible to apply.

The grant is intended to stimulate and support research on the history and impact of Christian Democracy in the history of the European Union and its final objective is the publishing of a scholarly article in an international peer-reviewed academic journal.

Applications must be sent by e-mail to the Historical Archives of the European Union. Read the call for application and discover all details here.
